Fashion lessons from the oldest generation!
Fashion is not a question of age. It is a question of style and a bit of confidence. When Granny and Gramps tell you something, you better listen. And when it comes to fashion, we found some elderly people who know what they are talking about.
We have heard so many stories from our grandparents and older persons. Some say that elderly people are wise people. You should listen to what they say and probably take notes. They are an amazing source of advice, and they know what they are talking about.
Why is that? Just because of the experience they have and because they probably tried things before you and can help you with the issue.
Also, another good thing with old people is that they judge less and tend to be there for you. They will probably not try to educate you as your parents would do, but instead they will just enjoy your company and find someone to talk to and listen to. The perfect match if you need a piece of advice or just need to talk.
As grandparents are a source of joy and the best teacher of life that we know, we decided to dedicate this article to some fantastic and stylish people. Because yes, it is not because you are getting older that you cannot be fashionable, good looking and SWAG.
Just have a look at them, you will understand and maybe find some inspiration. Sit, listen and take notes:
Corinne Warner
Let’s begin with the inspiring Corinne Warner. The 91 years old woman is an old fashion lover. Her style grew up through the years, as the trends and fashion evolved. She gets her inspiration in fashion from art and creativity. One of the best lessons to get from this wonderful woman is to always be yourself and not forget who you really are.
Authenticity and creativity are at the principle of her fashion style.
If you understood the assignment and her style, you must have seen the art surrounding the picture and running into her blood. Her fashion style is iconic, original and inspiring. She masters the art of layering. As a piece of art, she plays with colours, shapes, and designs.
We love Corinne and how gorgeous she is.
Helen Vanwinkle Honey
Icon we said? Okay so let’s keep going and show the worldwide internet superstar: BaddieWinkle aka Helen. The 94 years old woman is mainly known for her strong conviction, amazing sense of humour and also her fashion style. You probably know her or have heard of Helen since she is very famous. Followed by Rihanna or Kendrick Lamar, the nonagenarian baddie is Instagram certified and followed by more than 3 million people on the platform.
Just observe and enjoy:
Rebellious, adventurous and colourful. Helen and her fashion style are just the perfect definition of what life should be. She seems free, happy and having fun. She is the granny we have all wanted and dreamt about.
We would die to spend a day with her.
Lyn Slater
Accidental Icon, that is how Lyn Slater calls herself. Why? Because she went viral and became quite popular after being photographed “by accident” during the New York Fashion Week. At this time she was a social worker and professor. This was a sort of change in her career and life. She quickly focused on content creation and showing her amazing fashion style she always had and this made her go viral and famous on Instagram.
Lyn is more into being yourself, changing and moving through boundaries. She is against stereotypes and she is for change. Such an inspiring woman with strong convictions.
Fun, Free and Good looking. Lyn is definitely a stylish 65 years old woman. The kind of woman you want to be seen with and associated with. On top of that, she is a great writer and we really encourage you to go to her Instagram account, contemplate her pictures, style and read the caption of every single post. Also, check out her website!
She gives advice, writes about things she learnt and experienced and this gives us some insights about life, about our behaviours and can help us grow. Do not miss it!
Alojz Abram – aka – Jaadiee – aka – Jannik’s Gramps
Gramps is ending our article. The best dressed Man on earth. The Gramps who is smashing it. Yes, the famous 76 years old grampa is one of the few men being such a fashion icon. He became famous thanks to his grandson: Jannik, also the manager of the Instagram account and his personal photographer. According to Jannik, Gramps (as he is famous as) always loved street style and fashion. He saw his grampa’s interest grow and diversify. This launched the fame and beginning of his Instagram career. From a pic on the platform to the best fashion shows and events, Gramps has nothing to be afraid of.
Just look at him, he will tell you how to improve your style:
For sure, he is a great source of inspiration. His style could be adopted by all of us, and we should take him as a great inspiration and example in the fashion universe. He mixes fabrics, colours, exclusive items and knows how to do layering. Also, have you noticed all the details and the accessories, they make it all, as we previously explained 😉
Take advantage of going to his Instagram to check Jannick’s one, it’s also worth it.
As you have seen, read about and observed Granny and Grampa can teach you much more than just life lessons. From creativity, to inspiration, art, wellbeing and self-esteem, they are just amazing. Age is just a number; style: an attitude.
Fashion is not dedicated to young tall and thin people. Fashion is about who you are and what you want to be. Fashion is everything and it never ends. Do not stop dreaming, trying and being yourself. These people are an amazing example of it. If you hate old people We hope they have changed your behaviour!
